Salim Ramani: No, this Typhoon Lionrock has not directly disturbed Monsoon. As per IMD criteria South West Monsoon initial withdhrawal norms are:i)Cessation of rainfall activity over the area for continuous 5 days.ii) Establishment of anticyclone in the lower troposphere (850 hPaand below)iii) Considerable reduction in moisture content as inferred fromsatellite water vapour imageries and tephigrams.

Anoop: Delhi NCR received some showers on Monday. I have put up my views for next 2 days. But, there are some rains possible in Delhi region ahead.Neeraj: Good to hear from you. As per axis movement indications, rains possible in East Nepal regins soon this week.

In the tropical Pacific Ocean, the El Niño—Southern Oscillation (ENSO) remains neutral, but a late and weak La Niña remains possible. In the Indian Ocean, a negative Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) continues, but has weakened from record July index values.

International climate models surveyed by the Bureau suggest the negative IOD will weaken during the southern hemisphere spring, and is likely to end in November. This means its influence on Australia’s spring rainfall may not be as strong as it has been during this winter, when wetter conditions prevailed in the east.

In the tropical Pacific Ocean, sea surface temperatures are cooler than average, though remain well short of La Niña levels. In the atmosphere, there has been little change in trade winds or cloudiness, indicating little or no coupling between the atmosphere and ocean. As a result, cool sub-surface temperatures have eased slowly towards normal. International climate models suggest neutral to weak La Niña levels for the remainder of the year. A La Niña WATCH remains in place.

During La Niña, northern and eastern Australia typically experience above average spring rainfall, with the first rains of the wet season typically arriving earlier than normal in northern Australia. Some La Niña-like effects can still occur even if thresholds are not exceeded.
